Kristen's mom, Kathy, came to visit for almost a week! Hooray! What fun for everyone, especially for Jack who had her entire attention and devotion the whole time. They worked a lot on waving goodbye and hello, and Jack will now hoist his hand up beside his head and leave it there for extended periods of time (think of raising your hand to ask a question in class).
Other recent Jack news:
Roseola. Super high fever, super clingy, cranky baby, and then a lovely blotchy red rash all over. Glad that's over and we can move on to other excitement such as...
A Tooth! Sometime between 1:30 and 2 AM last Tuesday, Jack popped a tiny lower left tooth. We think the right one may follow soon!
Almost walking. We've got some video, we'll try to compile a short collection for you. He cruises around holding onto furniture or hands, and today he followed Jim around the yard pushing a little walker/scooter for balance.
Groupies. The boy has groupies. Every Sunday at church, approximately 14 girls between the ages of 6 and 13 hover around Jack from the time we arrive to the time we depart. They work with him in the nursery, follow us in a little adoring swarm when we pick him up, and fall over each other for the chance to hold him or walk him around the foyer after the service. We occasionally feed him lunch in the foyer, and they'll all gather around to watch and commentate on the whole process. They buy him presents. Seriously. Its great, really, but we are a little concerned about the long term implications...

Glad to see your walking Jack!!! Now if you can just get ready to slap some skiis on in time to join Bryant for his first ski. But perhaps you and Caleb could do some playing if you want to wait another year.
